Why
we like this bike |
This
is the top model in "fast touring" series. It
will be comfortable and smooth for a four-hour ride and
give hassle-free fun for 5-8,000 miles, maybe more. And
then it will be serviceable and upgradable. Light enough,
zippy handling from skinny wheels, rack mounts for commuting
or randonneuring. Perfect. |
Who
is this bike for? |
This
is the bike most people should have.
You
will need click-in pedals and bike shoes.

Sizes
available |
XS
(42cm), S(46cm), M(50cm), L(54cm), XL(58cm)
Note
that these relaxed fit bikes have a sloping top tube
and that affects the sizing. A man 5'10" - 6'0"
is used to having a 56-59 cm frame in a bike like a
Roubaix, but takes a 54 cm
in one of these.
